Most of your trading rules stay the same, but three things change:
Consistency rule — a 30% consistency rule is introduced (there is none during the evaluation). No single trading day can account for 30% or more of your total profits during a payout period.
Drawdown lock — once your account balance reaches your starting balance, the trailing drawdown stops moving and locks in place.
News trading — a 2-minute buffer is introduced around high-impact news events. You cannot open, close, or trigger pending orders within 2 minutes before or after a scheduled release.
Everything else remains the same: drawdown type (trailing intraday), max drawdown amount, and contract limits.
